Even 4 handed? I can see KQ/KJ/K10 opening this flop SH


He donk bet the flop, those stats at these limits he is holding a five. No doubt about it in my mind at all.

I am sure he has flopped the joint with 4,5 here. No villain will donk bet the flop holding any of the above hands short handed.

AK - AJ, TT+ will but the re raise on the turn screams to me: "I'm holding a 5 and it's better than yours!"

I'm sorry but I flat that river and sigh when he rolls 45/A5/44/K5 or Q5. And I am almost willing to take bets that it is 45.

I'm not saying I don't flat the river - was just curious as to the vehement discount of the above hands.

Because villain doesn't three bet turn with any King.

Not many players are this aggressive at these stakes with any part of the board, they are more likely to flat here.

Which means you wouldn't get paid off as much against someone like me :D

I would say you are more of a thinking player than most at 10NL. I would also assume that your stats might be considerably different to villain above.

I would say 1% of players at this limit are capable of making plays of any difficult nature.

And seriously, how does raising that river gain you any extra value?

i didn't read spoiler, thought i would post first.

in this hand, raising the river is just bad. nothing calls that you beat, unless the player is really bad. maybe KQ at a stretch, but if this player is any good at all (and by that i mean a 2/10 player) then he wouldn't call if you raise river.

flat and make a note.

now for the spoiler
